Both did burial (with and without preparation) and cremation. And, like that Monty Python routine (”we can burn her, bury her, or dump her”), there were some of those killed in the arena whose bodies made it into the food supply (sez Lionel Casson).

Thanks, but no thanks. I love Roman history, but explicit depictions of theis matter would be a little hard to stomach.
